Although it looks like the sea is quiet, it was actually quite a swell and the boat was rolling from side to side all day and night.

Great view from the top, especially with the new boat in the background!

We went ashore for a walk. You are not allowed to go ashore alone here as the whole island is a nature reserve. But you can call a guide which will meet you and take you up to a small museum.
Nice to see one other sailboat here as well, after all it was March.

After only having sailed around in the Valencia area it was great that my dad came for a visit in March so we could give her the first real test. We chose the Columbretes Island which is a bit closer than Ibiza and sounded like a nice place to start.
It wasn't the best weather and it wasn't the best wind, but who cares when you have a brand new boat and are out on your first adventure :)

Sound of Silence was bought new in 2007. She is a Hanse 400 epoxy version with the 3 cabin, 2 head layout.
We keep her in Valencia and use her for daysails in the area and summer trips to the Balearic Island.
The picture shows the first time in the water :)

This is how she is inside.
